Way before platinum there was a place we to go and ride for at a time on a country road is troubling, you can let it go I get out of the car and walk through it, visit the and talk to it Simply saying, "Mr. water, what is it that you from?" Asked the in the tree, "What is it that you humming for?" Now (Why the Caged Bird Sings) is wishing to be free Reminded myself of life and hold on me Touring, the children, women, sexual Religion means so much to me, the church see enough of me This way, that way, bending corners to get away Sometimes you to see a storm to appreciate a pretty day in the car now, headed for the liquor store God, a vivid scene, digging what I just seen Rolled up another one, still in a daze up at the Mini-Mart, my mind on the country roads
I want to go On the country and get blowed On the roads again roll Been on the roads again
Yo, we off in these backwoods Caddy-hogging, Nappy dog, no joke We glad robbing, rap imposter's, for they problem no hope It's cutthroat, we starving, charging for the front do' You want mo'? We smoke and sparking, jokers like the go Been shoving for plenty miles, yes I'm the type to grin and bear it The chance and out the box, I'm back again with 'dro and spirits Look at me now, I found a spot, I'm down here by rolling river Grab a rose and me to a place, au revoir, I'm rolling scriptures
Man these country roads me zone out Riding through all the bullshit that poppa would scold But soon as my hustle got good I out Quick to jump I-24, come back with mo' By '97 I was smoking o The chains and the Willie was the dress code We our littlest cousin Gwin, a skid row Tony Renfrow in peace your kinfolks, I miss y'all
(Dude what the are we doing?) Back deep on these country roads blowing, getting in touch my mind No worries just lines and curve-filled signs When all the events throughout the day, good or bad, somehow While I recline, in my seats Hit the trees and repeat And let the melody of windy roads keep my soul upbeat No destination proposed, riding these country roads... Listen, this that's willing to catch a court case Split your wig quicker than the divorce rate show out, go wild in the corpse cage Blow out in the news and I don't mean the page Get drowned in North Lake, could get found in cave Fool, get down, the crazy! Lil' Stille's with ambition, to fill my position me, but by the Lord's grace still existing Should be in depression La is missing, cousins in prison Heard Ricky was snitching, now he's a born-again Christian Always had my suspicions, our teens with bad Family members overseas on a mission, we miss 'em See you can straight through two different coasts State to state, this beautiful globe In search of a full of food for the soul I could taste it when the smoke hit my On a place country roads
